As the day drew to a close, the sun setting, throwing magnificent colours over the horizon, the night grew considerably colder. Perhaps this was a changing weather, the winter months coming up, or maybe it was just that it seemed to go dark quickly, the suns warmth zapped from the air. 

the curfew still in effect despite the rest day, the guilds were expecting to be in their hotels, and Jamie found the absence of Damian, wearily sitting down on the bed in her room, she let her head drop into her hands, wondering why the guild seemed intent on sabotaging their chances. 

She allowed herself a moment of weariness, before rising, bading Sam stay with Jarvis as she went to check everyone was in the hotel, before the curfew came into effect.

Waking early, and seemingly alone, Penny found herself feeling empty, lonely, and...weary despite what must have been a long sleep. With Solias dead, she would never come to an answer to helping Karn and Edo-Karn-and they really had to come up with another name for Edo-Karn, didn't they?. Forcing herself to rise, she went over to the window, feeling like she had no energy to get ready for the day, what was the point in any case? It was a rest day. 

she leaned her head against the window, watching the city come to life. 

Her eyes stung, and she felt like she'd never have another tear to shed. She felt the drain on her powers for what she had done, an wondered briefly if some part of her had not been damaged by the use of the death song. Her body would heal, but what if she had permanently damaged her magical abilities? 

Turning she realised she had forgotten about Ariel as she saw the girl on the couch. Not wanting to wake her, Penny slipped into the bathroom, where she allowed the water from the shower to pound the weariness from her body, letting the spray ease her stinging eyes.
